Working on Loremaster of Outland

After finishing Eastern Kingdoms, I wanted something easier before I started working on Kalimdor. As a result, I'm doing the outlands quests.

I finished Zangamarsh yesterday and I hope to finish Hellfire Peninsula today. I have about 100 quests for each of Area 52 and Shadowmoon Valley but the other zones are all roughly 50% complete.

I'd like to do all the heroics at the same time since I am missing a LOT of these.

Other notes: I played 60 games of 2v2 and 12 games of 3v3. My 2's team is really starting to click - I'm paired with a combat rogue and we often destroy people in seconds. Our favourite team to play against is rogue+priest, which is both common and powerful. Killing Spree, Blade Flurry, Bloodlust, Wolves, Stormstrike, Frost Shock and totems all landing within 1.5 seconds on the (purged) priest is absurdly good.

I also did a full ZG clear, with my friends passing all the coins and bijous to me for rep. It looks like ZG will be fairly simple to hit exalted with. The only hard boss was hakkar, and that was solely because of his mind control ability.

Remember to Share (300 Toys)!

This one has taken a while. I finally picked up 300 toys (and thus the mount for the achievement) after starting to seriously work on my Archaeology achievements for the first time. I've been doing the fortnightly Legion archaeology quests for a while (and thus had 800 skill) but I completely ignored this profession in earlier expansions as it seemed seriously boring. With some knowledge and a good addon, it's much better however. Some tips if you're just starting to work on archaeology: 1. Download the "Archy" addon. This addon does several things: first, it shows you the location and completion status of all digsites in the current continent. Second, it automatically sets the closes one as a waypoint for TomTom. Third, it indicates when it's possible to solve an artifact with and without a keystone, so you don't have to constantly check your archaeology screen. On top of that, the distance indicator shows when you are in the correct range from your ...

It probably won't make it to live. But check out this feat of strength from the beta:

A Song of Wind and Water

I've been working on Oracles and Ogri'la rep every day and have about four days to go. One thing I've noticed about these older daily quests is that there is little provision for high-level players that one-shot everything. Two quests in particular stand out as being annoying until you learn the high-level trick. The first is Banish More Demons in Blade's Edge. This involves placing a portal on the ground then killing demons within a few feet of the portal. The portal has a one-minute cooldown and you need fifteen demons. It was a slow exercise in frustration because kiting further-away demons was difficult sue to all my abilities one-shotting them before they got near. In the end, I learned to use the Shaman's "Purge" ability to aggro mobs without killing them and pull them close to the portal. The second, and more annoying, quest that isn't scaled for high-level players is the Ogri-la's Song of Wind and Water .  This involves weakening ...
